About this file
This is a Memorandum to the File documenting a determination that only one source is reasonably available for a FAR Part 13 simplified acquisition. The United States Marine Band requires one professional bassoon (Fox Products Model 750, Serial #74991) with an estimated total value of $35,165.00. The required delivery date is as soon as possible. The justification for single-source procurement is based on brand name requirements, as the contracting officer determined that Fox Bassoons is the only manufacturer capable of producing an instrument meeting every salient characteristic and standard of excellence, evidenced by the sound quality produced by the musician through the instrument. The requirement is not based on restrictive rights, exclusive licensing agreements, or urgent and compelling circumstances.
The document is controlled by the Department of the Navy, United States Marine Command, and the Installation and Logistics Higher-Contracting Authority, with limited dissemination control restricted to DoW community only. The point of contact is Lesline Abonwoh (703-784-3509). The distribution list for this controlled unclassified information includes MCFCS personnel, Logistics Branch personnel, procurement team personnel (including legal, customers/requirements owners, source selection personnel, and small business representatives), and any other individual designated by the contracting officer.

Determination that Only One Source is Reasonably Available (Including Brand Name) – FAR Part 13 Acquisitions under the SAT
V 1.6 (20 December 2023)
DISTRIBUTION: DoW COMMUNITY ONLY
2. ___ EXCLUSIVE LICENSING
AGREEMENTS. The item or service is only available from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), or there is only one authorized distributor or technical representative for the OEM.
3. ___ OTHER REASONS.
B. _X__ BRAND NAME
Item required must be a brand name, product, or feature of a product, particular to one manufacturer.
The requirement can only be satisfied by Fox Bassoons because other manufacturers of this product failed to produce an instrument that met every salient characteristic and standard of excellence. This is evident by the sound that is produced by the musician through the instrument.
C. ___URGENT AND COMPELLING. The supplies or services are of such unusual and compelling urgency that the Government would be seriously injured unless the agency is permitted to limit the number of sources from which it solicits bids or proposals. Urgent requirements are supplies or services that will result in a work stoppage, or are mission critical and the routine processing time would result in injury to the Government. The determination that the procurement for the above item/service is an urgent and compelling requirement is based on the following:
1. Date on which the requirement was first identified:
2. Required delivery date/period of performance:
3. Explanation of why delivery/commencement of services by the date mentioned above is required:
